"A Notre Dame University star, Tommy made big news this winter when he signed with the Yankees for a $40,000 bonus.
In high school, Tommy batted .420 in his senior year and with his tremendous speed stole a total of 40 bases in two seasons. Continuing his great hitting at Notre Dame, he batted .550. Last year he played in the Nova Scotia League."
